So where did all the sound go?
Could someone explain it to me.
Have I been brought to a world,
With no sound at all?
I've been so use to sound,
Noise, I don't remember what silence is anymore.
So when you introduced me to silence again.
I was put into a shock, of unsureness.
It was where I didn't here kids screaming.
People talking, dogs barking, or just the sounds of life moving around.
Nothing, it was different just to hear nothing at all.
The silence was scary, I wasn't sure if everyone had just disappeared.
I looked around, and saw everyone still standing there.
Looking at me with utter confusion on their face.
I must have been looking the same way.
That was only because there was silence that I'm not use to.
I've been introduced to silence.
Which was something I've never known.
Something never heard, there was always noise.
And now I hear nothing, I see only confused and smiling faces.

I'm pretty sure this is about birth? I'm a bit confused. Is this about a deaf child?
Anyway.. nice poem. I like the imagery and the way you crafted your words.
It felt like a mini story, I liked that part.
Thanks for entering.
